Mass Change on November 5th and Adoration
Evening Mass on November 5th will be at 6:30 on November 5th. This is because we will be hosting an Adoration night from 7:30-10 pm that Friday! This adoration night is for all parishioners; there will be Praise and Worship, Confession and a social after!
Invitation Workshop
Oct., 19th
This Tuesday at 6:30, we are hosting a workshop on how to Invite your friends and family to parish events. The night will kick off with Pizza!
We often want to reach out to people, but we feel awkward or don't know what to say. Eric Chow will be giving a talk on practical tips on how to invite people, whether to Alpha, Adoration, or Mass.
Inviting people to the parish events is a crucial part of evangelization and parish renewal!
